It wouldn't be so bad if they didn't charge you full price Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 20/09/2012 10:11:46 PM
The whole practice of buying the prologue in advance is strange to me. A three dollar price tag is no big deal, but I don't see any need to read part of a book in advance. I want to sit down with a fresh, complete book in my hands so I can read it from start to finish. That to me is a more satisfying experience.

Obviously the market of impatient fans is there, so they'd be foolish not to take advantage of it, but I'd rather wait since I know I'll be buying the full book anyway.


I agree. I want to sit down with a book and start. Not just read the beginning and then have to read it again by the time the book comes out.

I refuse to pay $2.99 for part of a book that will still cost you full price - 20/09/2012 09:34:28 PM 1409 Views
Yeah. $2.99 Isn't really that much though, I won't buy it because the wait after it would kill me. *NM* - 20/09/2012 09:49:20 PM 463 Views
Yeah it's not much but it's the principle. They basically ripped you off *NM* - 20/09/2012 10:13:02 PM 427 Views
How so? Ripped off implies they are failing to follow through on some implicit offer - 20/09/2012 10:23:36 PM 1032 Views

Well, then don't buy it. *NM* - 20/09/2012 10:18:44 PM 409 Views
I didn't...wasn't I clear on that? *NM* - 20/09/2012 10:42:05 PM 424 Views
And we give a shit, why? - 20/09/2012 10:21:01 PM 948 Views
Evidently you do give a shit, seeing how you responded - 20/09/2012 10:41:33 PM 898 Views
Luckily you have a choice *NM* - 20/09/2012 10:32:24 PM 392 Views
I bought it, and it's because I understand the heart of the matter. - 20/09/2012 11:05:36 PM 932 Views

I love what Subterranean Press did with Sanderson's Legion novella. - 21/09/2012 06:46:16 AM 961 Views
Actually, that's all Sandersons own doing. - 21/09/2012 07:09:19 AM 856 Views
Frankly, it's a win-win for me - 21/09/2012 08:39:54 AM 1011 Views
Me too. It just irritates me. *NM* - 27/09/2012 05:29:39 PM 387 Views
